Review: Cheeky Bingo

We all love getting something for nothing, and that’s exactly what Cheeky Bingo promises: free bingo, with the chance to win real cash prizes.

This well-known, professional site comes from the same stable as bingo giant Foxy Bingo. Cheeky Bingo might not look quite as swishy on the surface, but it’s clear that great care and attention to detail has gone into creating this superb site.

The real draw here is the site’s fabulous free games, which can be accessed whether you’ve previously made a deposit or not—a real rarity amongst bingo sites. Cheeky Bingo has a whole lot more to offer, though, with its VIP scheme and fantastic welcome offer also standing amongst the highlights. Ready to learn everything you need to know about Cheeky Bingo? Read on…

When you do decide to take the plunge and make your first deposit, you’ll be rewarded again, with a 300% deposit bonus. If you deposit £10, you’ll get an extra £30 to play with—and with bonuses available for any deposit amount up to £100, you could get up to £300 in freecash!

Bottom Line

It’s easy to see this appeal of this popular and bubbly site: Cheeky Bingo rolls out the red carpet right from the word go with its tantalising welcome bonus package, and continues to make members feel welcome with its exclusive VIP scheme. Its tightly-knit, welcoming community makes this the perfect place for any social butterflies out there, and with a host of free games, you really can play a cheeky game of bingo with no strings attached.

In Depth

Banking

Most bingo players should be satisfied with Cheeky Bingo’s available range of payment methods, which includes many of the most popular ways to make bingo deposits. Nonetheless, we’d like to see the site improve its flexibility here by adding some new and easy deposit methods, such as Boku.

Placing Deposits

Debit Card: Visa or Maestro

Credit Card: Visa or MasterCard

PayPal

Paysafecard

Neteller

Please note: the minimum deposit amount is £5

Making Withdrawals

You can make withdrawals the same way you make deposits. So, if you made a deposit with your Visa debit card, for example, your winnings will be sent to that card. If your payment method doesn’t support withdrawals, then your winnings will be sent to you via bank transfer or cheque. The minimum withdrawal amount is £30, and the process can take between 2-7 days depending on the withdrawal method. Like most sites, you won't be able to make withdrawals until you've met the wagering requirements first.

Games

Bingo Games

Whilst some bingo sites offer a wide range of bingo games, Cheeky Bingo prefers to keep it simple by offering only the 75 ball and 90 ball varieties. We’re a little disappointed in this lack of variety, but luckily the site makes up for it in other ways.

The most notable feature here is the site’s range of free games on offer for people who want a fun, no-risk game of bingo. A word of caution, though: if you haven’t yet made a deposit on the site, you won’t be able to chat with anyone on the free games. This isn’t the most sociable option, but if you’re looking for nothing more than a quick game of bingo, it’s a reasonable price to pay for free bingo.

If the thought of bingo without any chat sends shivers down your spine, but you’re still looking to save money, then don’t worry—the site also offers paid games from as little as 5p.

Slots

Want to take a quick break in between games? Feel like exploring a little, and venturing outside the world of bingo? Cheeky Bingo has you covered with its selection of slot games. With well over 100 games on offer, you’re bound to find a slot that’s right for you. Check out a couple of our favourites below...

Mafia Madness

If you’re looking for an action-packed, edge-of-your-seat thriller of a slot, then you’ll love Mafia Madness. This 5-reel, 20-payline slot is filled with blazing guns, explosions and plenty of damsels in distress to save. Plus, this slot will make you an offer you can’t refuse—a huge jackpot, that is!

Superman

It’s a bird, it’s a plane... no, it’s the Superman slot! If you see yourself as the next big hero, you’ll love this 5-reel, 50-payline slot. Rescue hostages and defeat Lex Luthor, but beware—avoid the kryptonite! If you’re good enough to save the world, you might even be worthy of a hero’s jackpot!

Casino Games

Starting with the good news: unlike some other bingo sites, Cheeky Bingo has a selection of casino games on offer, helping you to experience the opulent ambience of Monte Carlo or high-rolling vibe of Las Vegas—all in the comfort of your own home. The selection here isn’t huge, however. Still, users do have the chance to play some of the most popular casino games around, including roulette, blackjack, and baccarat.

Promotions

We love nothing more than a cheeky deal—and with its fab range of promotions, Cheeky Bingo does not disappoint on this front. And as we've already mentioned in 6 tips to help you play online bingo, promotions are very important!

Casino Play Date: join Cheeky Bingo every Thursday for the chance to win 10% cashback when you opt in and wager a minimum of £20 on select games.

Pre-Buy Games: pick your cards for daily games up to 7 days before the main game! Buy tickets and get the chance to win a £2,000 jackpot every Friday Night!

Free Bingo Games: take part in Cheeky Bingo’s free bingo games, where there’s over £50,000 worth of jackpots to be won every week!

Chat Games: take part in Cheeky Bingo’s daily chat games for the chance to win loyalty points, free tickets and £10 jackpots!

Performance

Cheeky Bingo have turned to the battenberg for inspiration when it comes to site design—and indeed, the bold, bright pink and yellow colour scheme may be a bit sickly sweet for some players. Nonetheless, it’s hard to fault many other aspects of the layout: the site is intuitive and easy to navigate, meaning less time spent stressing and more time spent playing!

The on-site games are powered by industry-standard Dragonfish software, which means you’re assured of a top-quality gaming experience. Slow, laggy games are a thing of the past with Cheeky Bingo!

Mobile

Cheeky Bingo has a mobile app on offer for iOS users, but there’s no equivalent Android app at present. Not to worry—the site itself is already fully optimised for mobile devices, meaning that no one has to miss out on all the fun! To play on your PC, mobile or tablet, simply type the web address into your browser, and play to your heart’s content.

Support

If you have any problems or queries, you can get in contact with Cheeky Bingo’s support team 24/7, via phone or email. Unfortunately, it doesn’t currently offer live chat—we hope this will be added sometime in the near future. If you have any smaller queries, you might want to check the FAQs page first.

Final Comments

Cheeky by name, cheeky by nature—this site might just have stolen our hearts! The site’s generous welcome bonus kicked things off in style, and its ultra-exclusive All Stars VIP Club filled us with more than a little envy for the lucky 250 current members. The site’s free games are, as always, a major selling point, making it easy to enjoy the game we love even on the tightest of budgets.

That being said, the site does have a couple of improvements it needs to make before it’s 100% perfect. We’d like to see a larger variety of promotions—we do love to be spoilt for choice after all! We would also love to see some bigger jackpots—we’re used to progressive jackpots nearing the million mark, so we can be a little bit hard to please! Other than that, we’re pretty impressed with how much Cheeky Bingo has to offer!
